Human’s Health. Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Human’s Health.



Unless you make yourself of doing things
You have to do when it ought to be done
Irrespective of your liking for it,
To alleviate others’ sufferings
You haven’t learnt anything in schools.
This is the first lesson the child must be taught..
This is the last one the adult must have learnt.
Knowledge and skills developed without this
Will not save the human race from decay.
Building ships must include building life-boats.
building planes must include making parachoots.
